Would anyone here play a single player, 3d, dark, mature starship survival sandbox simulator?
>Auto-repairing hull Forget about it

This game would put you in the captains seat of a starship of your choice. Ships range from small shuttles to behemoth capitals. At all times a sense of adventure but also caution would be present. You never know whats out there, and just because you had the cutting edge of capital ship technology doesn't mean you're invincible, and a series of foolish decisions would leave you crippled in space or worse.

ye
Jonathan Price
you mean X3: Terran Conflict in 'squid' mode? that game already exists
Luis Myers
sure
Brody Carter
I love the X series, and a lot of the original idea in the OP is inspired from it. However I think we can all agree in every X game the execution of the idea has been really weak. Only the love for the concept and idea of what the X games really are about keeps anybody around. As far as production values in the X games its all around mediocre to at times bad.
Xavier Foster
The hell is squid mode?
Zachary Rivera
Yeah, probably, but if your idea of survival sandbox is really just mine-asteroids-until-you-can-afford-a-bigger-ship-to-more-efficiently-mine-asteroids then >forget about it.
Jack Cooper
I mean not if it was le fuggen epic dark soulz meme in space but otherwise sure
Carson Torres
Are you going to develop such a game?
Robert Ward
Absofuckinglutely
Isaiah Torres
Not necessarily.
yes, i'm just working on the details of the concept
Adam Young
not singleplayer
Jaxon Watson
Isn't that already a game? Fuck what was it called. You woke up in a derelict ship, had to find a way to get the life support systems back online, and once you got a space suit you could scoot around outside the ship to go loot other derelicts until you found a ship you could actually get working again to travel around. The name escapes me
Jeremiah Howard
Pretty sure that's hellion
Brandon Howard
Dead is dead.
Asher King
Yessss, that's what it was, thank you. Was that game any good
Evan Robinson
Can it support vr too, please?
Jaxson Cook
>Would anyone play Eve Online? Yes, I have been for years now.
Christian Ramirez
No idea. I saw a few videos on youtube and thought it looked interesting, but it seemed too unfinished for me to put money on it yet. The mixed reviews on steam don't bode well for it.
Cameron Johnson
Well that sucks. I looked it up too and the devs are at least still pushing out patches for it. I might check it out if it ever gets out of fucking early access
Jordan Morris
That sounds like Star Citizen.
Luke Nelson
As long as you can do more around your ship than sit in the pilots seat bored as shit for 10 minutes as you go from A to B I'm game.
Isaiah Watson
>Grind for 3 years game Yeah sorry kid, this isn't anything like that.
Alexander Barnes
No, it isn't anything like that. Because your game doesn't exist and never will because you're a lazy shit. >haha duuudes look at my CRAZY ideas for this game haha >why are you asking questions about what the gameplay actually is i haven't gotten that far reeeee
Jordan Jenkins
>spreadsheets and shitty autopilot ships with no control where all combat is done via abstracted percentage roll mechanics instead of proper simulation
zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Connor Clark
Nice meme. You don't know anything about me. You're just mad cuz Eve Online sucks.
Xavier Russell
Only if there is newtonian flight model and the celestial bodies and satellites have orbits. This is very important to me.
Juan Rivera
Yes, but this kind of game will be very hard to pull off right.
